Self-guided versus facilitator-guided debriefing in immersive virtual reality simulation: Protocol for a randomized controlled non-inferiority trial assessing teamwork skills in medical students.

ABSTRACT: Simulation-based medical education has been shown to be more effective but also logistically demanding and costly compared to other educational strategies in developing medical skills. Immersive virtual reality is an emerging technology enabling learners to train without a facilitator through computer-generated feedback, offering the potential for increased flexibility in the timing and location of the training and reduced costs. However, little is known about whether immersive virtual reality simulation yields similar results with and without a facilitator. The aim of this study is to compare the effects of self-guided compared to facilitator-guided debriefing for immersive virtual reality simulation-based pediatric emergency team training. We will conduct a randomized, controlled, single
